The sun has set on another week, but there's one major difference this time: we've actually got WAYP ready relatively early this time. In fact, this level of organisation is practically unheard of here at Push Square Towers, as responses from staff members were solicited yesterday – and the entire article's been completed long before lunch. Weird.

I'll be grudgingly leaving Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain untouched for a few days, as I spend a little time away from my PlayStation 4 with only my Vita to keep me company. Super Time Force Ultra is top of my list, but I'm hoping to give everything on my 64GB memory card a quick go so that I can free up some damn space.

After a right kerfuffle trying to get Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain to actually work on my PS4, it comes as no surprise that I'll be kicking up some dust as Big Boss in an attempt to make up for lost time. I'm pretty terrible at stealth games – my one true weakness – but that rule has never applied to Hideo Kojima's stellar series for whatever reason. Sure, I might have to put a few bullets in a few dozen Russian guards, but it's the results that count, and I get results. And B ranks.

It's taken me a few days, but I've finally cracked open my copy of Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. I've got no idea what's going on, but my goodness is it something special. I've always enjoyed the sim/management portions of games, so I'm looking forward to making my Mother Base so much better than your Mother Base. Just you wait and see.

This weekend I'll be trekking the forest in Until Dawn as quickly as possible, so I can then trek the forests in Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. The weather report says that it'll be sunny, so I could theoretically trek through real-life forests, but it's looking unlikely.

This weekend, I'll be riding V8 fuelled, shiny, and chrome, as I continue to play Mad Max for review. I'll also be mixing in a little Destiny, having finally got over my disappointment with how it turned out, and finding a way to like it for the game it is.

With Super Time Force Ultra and Xeodrifter released this month, September has already provided a couple of pixel chiselled 2D treats. I consider both titles to be valuable additions to my Instant Games Collection, but I'll focus on Xeodrifter first.

I never got to play the DLC for Dishonored, so I'm finally getting around to that with the Definitive Edition and will finish off The Brigmore Witches portion this weekend. Being in Daud's shoes feels like playing a different shade of Corvo Attono, and I really love that. I'll be sure to accompany that with Evolve as well, and maybe Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker. I need to get to Kojima's latest masterpiece as soon as possible.

This weekend I'll be getting my hand egg fix in Madden NFL 16 and trying to find out what all of the terms mean. (Seriously, the hell is a 'hook and lateral'?) If that gets boring, I'll also be playing Mad Max and basking in all of the lovely explosions because I was apparently the only person to choose it over Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain.

I'm a busy bee at the moment, so there'll be little time for gaming. However, I will try and squeeze in an hour or two of Grow Home, which is colourful, charming, and crucially, lots of fun.
WAYP is done and dusted in record time. All that's left is for us to ask: what are you playing this weekend? Let us know in the comments section below.

Super Time Force Ultra on my Vita and MGS5 on my PS4. Both are a lot of fun so far.
Nothing this weekend. I'm going through a barren spell due to lack of funds at the moment. Damn you bank of Ireland.
Still playing Soul Sacrfiice Delta. Some of the missions (pacts) are way too hard for me. Still enjoying it though.
@stevie85 BOI are the worst don't talk to me about waiting for a cheque to go through!
I'll be trying out some of the IGC offerings from the last few months such as Styx: Master of Shadows, Skulls of the Shogun, Grow Home and STFU. I'll probably work in some BF4 and maybe TLOU Remaster if I can. Really looking forward to the night ops coming to BF4
@Hego I've been with them 7 years and apparently they needed to verify my account which has taken almost two and a half weeks now. Disgraceful. Moving to AIB in the very near future lol.
I am playing through gears UE on hardcore difficulty (which Is a pain in the ass I might add) then I will start Dishonored DE since I never played it last gen
I'm so unlucky! I want to play MGS more than anything, but my MGS LE PS4 broke down, doesn't want to boot up anymore. I knew something was wrong right away cause it made a grinding noise, but I was too eager to play to care. Wish I'd hold on to my old PS4.
So I guess I'll be playing some Gears of War UE then....
MGSV and inbetween constantly getting spotted some Runbow play with the Girlfriend. So glad the summer drought has ended... Not enough time in the day!
Trying to catch up with destiny before taken king comes out. Dragon age inquisition and mgs5
MGSV: The Phantom Pain will probably be my only gaming action this weekend, and that's perfectly fine with me, because it's probably the greatest thing I've played this year. Only downside is, I have some college assignments to do, then camping one day this weekend. 😩
I'm playing one piece pirate warriors 3, almost got it platinum. It will be my first non lego or telltale game to platinum
After finishing The Witcher 3 last weekend it is back to Bloodborne. I defeated Micolash pretty easily and I am feeling the minions in the Nightmare are now harder than the bosses.
It is also playing The Walking Dead season 2 to a finish on the Vita to free some space.
Destiny (Ps4) still only at the beginning (lvl 5) so I will be playing this a lot this weekend.
Batman Arkham Knight (Ps4) trying to get the riddler clues and trophies corrected to fight him and finish the game
I've been playing MGSV and loving it. Just came down with the stomach flu last night, so I may need to play something where I don't pay as much attention. Maybe I'll finally try out kingdom hearts 2.5 (already beat birth by sleep on proud).
If all goes to plan I will be completing the story of MGS V this weekend! From what I understand there are a while bunch of non-essential challenge missions near the end, which I originally thought were needed to progress but it seems they're not, meaning I've only got around 5 left to see the inevitably fantastic ending to the metal gear saga!
Of course I will then be proceeding to spend hundreds more hours pushing to 100% it, but for now I'm just desperate to see the story through to the end. So close!
The overshadowed Mad Max.
Checking out some PS+ games and Until Dawn.
Trying to 100% Pirate Warriors 3. I thought it was be easy at first since the bulk of it is a lot faster to unlock/complete than the previous games. The last stretch seems like it'll take a long time, though.
Friday - Destiny Raid
Saturday - Super Time Force
Sunday - MGS
Single Player
PS4
Mega Man Legacy Collection — I finished Mega Man the other night so I started on Mega Man 2 yesterday, going to wrap up Wily's Castle then it's onto Mega Man 3.
Diablo III — Need more loot lol, looking for a set piece that keeps alluding me, plus this game is to much fun.
Multiplayer
Xbox
Halo — Yep still having fun with this one
PS4
Diablo III — Started a new run with the guys from work, decided to go with a Witch Doctor.
I'll just be playing some Rocket League and some Drivecub until the Uncharted Collection drops. Maybe I'll pick up Until Dawn as well, looks very fun.
@SteveButler2210 The way I saw it was nothing else of interest to me is coming out until October, so I'll just take my good old time with the game's story, haha. It's crazy to think there's people out there that have already beat the game. I've been having a blast with the side ops and it's what I've done most of the time in MGS5. Main missions are fun too, but like I said, I don't wanna do too many of them yet because I'm just taking my time.
I'm going to my in laws for Labor Day so I won't be home till Monday. Got a little Yugioh legacy of the duelist in and some One Piece too before I got to leave in a few hours. Picked up Until Dawn for $40 yesterday but won't get to that until next week sometime.
@JesWood13 that's fair enough, I just wanted to get through it ASAP to avoid spoilers, and also once it started to pick up I've found myself really eager to know what happens next! I have done side ops too, but I did take the week off work so that's the only reason I'm nearly finished, played it pretty solidly from Tuesday onwards, got about 50 hours on the clock!
I'm going to try for the platinum though, so will still be getting plenty out of it yet, and none of the side content is missable
Metal Gear Solid V and Destiny. That's it.
About 45 hours into MGSV now and I'm not even halfway through the main missions. It is just too good.
The other half wants to watch strictly this evening so I'll be waiting for that to finish then back on MGSV.
I slept maybe 4 hours on Tuesday night so I could get up at 5 to play again. I have never been this immersed in a game.
Splatoon and The Witcher 3.
Won't be playing this weekend as got family down... Metal gear solid 5 just keeps looking at me from my games pile.....
Not MGS V, because of course.
I've gotten really busy recently, so I don't know if I can play anything. If I do, I'll try to get my Infamous 2 platinum, and after that I'll start Uncharted 1 on crushing so I can platinum that. May also do MGS Portable Ops and Sonic Advance.
On the PS4 its all about Metal Gear V... Just hit 65 hours play time now, though I'm only on mission 22 because I've been doing side ops and resource runs/outpost takedowns.
Gameplay just does not get tired, its so much fun. Apart from that a few rival runs on the Forza 6 demo, can't wait for next week, its so good.
Metal Gear Solid V. Haven't been able, due to my work schedule, to put as much time in as I want, but that will change these next couple days.
I'm starting up Valkria Chronicles after leaving it on the shelf for far too long. It's pretty good. I the concept of taking up defensive positions, and firing on advancing enemies. I'm also playing some COD4: Modern Warfare and maybe some DMC3 HD.
Started Bloodborne a few weeks ago and feel like I'm now nearing the end.
After that my head is telling me to clear some of my backlog but my heart wants to get MGS! Decisions, decisions...
Hey guys haven't been around for a while thought I'd drop in and say what I'm playing.
Picked up metal gear and mad max on pc last week and I went back and forth the first day because they're both so good in my opinion.. but eventually mgs won out because I've been an absolute massive metal gear fan since I beat the first one on ps1 when it came out when I was a youngster haha.. so that's been going great. The game looks absolutely incredible maxed out in 4k/60fps
Besides that, every evening my wife and I have been putting in an hour or two into until dawn on ps4. It's super fun and we've had our fair share of jump scares so far lol. Only one character has died so far so I think we're doing okay! Haha.. definitely a game I'd recommend. Especially with a significant other.. it's fun to make the decisions together.
Anyway that's all for me! Hope everyone has a good weekend.
I'll be playing Dark Souls II: SOTFS if I get the chance. I've just begun my second journey through the world of Drangleic, and made mincemeat of the first four bosses within about an hour. It's possible I was somewhat overlevelled...but I'm expecting the difficulty to ramp up considerably soon.
I've decided not to buy anything until I've got the platinum on Dark Souls II, and at least finished one playthrough of Bloodborne, so let's hope I can get there by the time Fallout and WWE 2K16 come out, amid filling out Masters applications for uni next year!
Has anyone played Disney Infinity 3.0 yet?
Pfft really nothing
not sure really, might try to finish some of my unfinished games
No time no money. Nothing this weekend
I started playing Bravely Default again at the weekend. Such a a good game.
Mrgrgr
I started Lollipop Chainsaw (PS3) recently, still playing the Prologue due to RL distractions.
